Bochy said he did not want any unexpected travel delays to hinder Cain before his start Thursday against the Rockies in Colorado.
"What didn't make sense is to bring him up here for two days," Bochy said, per MLB.com. "We told him to [stay behind]."
Cain has gone 2-0 with a 1.76 ERA through two starts in May.

"He did that three days ago," manager Ron Roenicke said Wednesday. "I think we will have a few of those with him, and then get him some live hitters."
The left-hander has been sidelined since early April due to an injured middle finger.

Hart is eligible to come off the 60-day disabled list May 30.
"Hart has been out running four days now without trying to take the weight off it," Roenicke said. "That is a good sign; we're still probably a couple weeks away from him going out on a rehab. That's kind of guessing -- I don't mean exactly -- but we're somewhere in there. Then we'll see how long he goes out for."

Ackley has been dealing with a sore left ankle, but his rest this week didn't do anything to improve the status of the injury.
"It feels the same, no matter what," Ackley told MLB.com. "I think it actually feels better when I'm playing than when I'm not because you get the adrenaline flowing. The days I feel it the most are the ones I don't play, so it doesn't matter to me. I'm ready to go every day -- whatever they want me to do."
Ackley faces right-handed starter Phil Hughes and the Yankees Wednesday.

"I definitely am frustrated," Axford told MLB.com on Wednesday. "I can't lie about that, but I feel strong, I feel good and that's where I've got to keep building off of. The first four games of this season, that wasn't me, and that's something I can get a wash too and brush that away. I felt different; my mechanics weren't quite right."
Manager Ron Roenicke said he has been confused by Axford's struggles thus far.
"I don't know; it's hard to figure out," Roenicke stated. "We still have confidence in him, and nothing seems to go right. So we'll see."

Price, who has been struggling with allergies this season, was getting hit hard before leaving with one out in the third inning. He allowed four earned runs on five hits and a walk over 2 1/3 innings. He struck out one and was up to 57 pitches thrown when he left the game. His ERA is 5.24.
The 27-year-old 2012 American League Cy Young award winner has struggled from the get-go this season. However, it appeared he began figuring things out in his last start when he allowed just two runs over eight solid innings against Toronto. He struggled again Wednesday, and then added injury to insult as he left with a 2-0 deficit that only widened after he left.
On the hook for the loss after leaving the game, Price could add another defeat to his 1-3 record. He is next scheduled to start Monday at Toronto, but he is obviously questionable for that outing.
